4. Maintain tip-to-well clearance
Maintain clearance between the end of the pipette tip and
the bottom of the sample tube or well to avoid plugging the
tip during mixing.
5. Recovering from particle detachment
If particles become detached from the sample, gently “flick”
the pipettor downward to bring them back into contact
with the sample and proceed with mixing.
Pipetting Examples
Please note that typical PCR samples are colorless — for visualization,
yellow dye was used.
To correct
B
and to improve performance, gently “flick” the
pipettor downward to bring all particles and the sample back
together, then proceed with mixing.
B. Incorrect mixing:
Particles separated by
air bubble.
A. Correct mixing:
Sample and particles
mixing well.
